Boasting over 25 years of distributed systems expertise in the technology and cloud sector, Stella will guide the innovation and development of cloud security capabilities for Prelude as they look to create further separation as the most complete threat management solution in the world.
“We are very excited to bring Josha on board,” said Spencer Thompson, Chief Executive Officer at Prelude. “His background building customer-focused cloud security products is evident from his track record of product adoption at startups and global enterprises. Prelude, and our customers, are already feeling his impact in the areas of innovation and product delivery velocity.”
Stella joins Prelude from Trellix, a global leader in extended detection and response, where he served as Chief Architect.

“From my first introduction to Spencer and Prelude, it was clear that they were taking the right approach to the threat management problem that plagues every organization on the planet. Prelude isn’t just taking organizations from think to know, they’re eliminating complexity and bottlenecks that enable organizations to definitively know they are protected against the latest threats,” said Stella. “The team has done an excellent job embedding modern AI into the fabric of the product and customer workflows, and I look forward to working with the engineering team and customers to deliver technology that empowers organizations to embrace the next shifts in threat management for cloud technology.”
